Yeast infection, boyfriend and clothes?
Yesterday, a few hours after we had sex, my boyfriend noticed itching on his penis, although he's fine today. This evening, I noticed itching that I'm guessing is a yeast infection (I've only had one before, about a month ago, and I never have the characteristic cottage cheese discharge etc, just itching and rawness).
1. Is it likely that he has it as well, and should I make him use Monostat or whatever to treat it also?
2. Should I wash the sheets/pair of pants I was wearing without underwear/etc, worrying that they could possibly give the infection back to me or to my boyfriend, or is this not a problem?
3. I've seen the images for oral thrush and they're not pretty. If I went down on him for a few minutes today, is it likely that I'm going to get that? I think I read somewhere that it's unlikely to get oral thrush from a yeast infection, but not sure.

Thanks so much!
